My first Moksha

Today I tried my first ever “Moksha” class at Moksha Thornhill. I’ve been going there a while, but doing the Power Flow (which is like hot Vinyasa) or FireFlow (not hot Vinyasa). Today, the signature class was all that was offered for the holiday, so I tried it.

The instructor Emily was lovely. Very nice voice, good instructions (some in Sanskrit, which I like and don’t hear much at Moksha) and was calm and chatty (but not too chatty). I definitely would practice with her again. I don’t usually say that much about the instructor, but I just really liked her vibe.

As for the practice, it was nice. As always, I was sweating crazily, got a little light-headed a few times, and felt like I was working hard…but also wondered how hard I’d be working if it wasn’t so hot! I think it would have been a decent solid practice, but nothing special or overly challenging without the heat.

After the class I decided to shower. The shower was clean and hot and there was multi-purpose (hair and body) cleanser provided. The cleanser seemed watery and my hair feels dirty now though…hopefully they’ll freshen it up!

Really, the cleanser was my only complaint. Of course I didn’t love the heat…but that’s not a complaint. It is what Moksha does and I’ll either get more used to it or eventually stop going to heated classes…which should be easier in the new year when Mysore starts there!
